Chrischona – Inzlingen – Riehen

A fairly easy walk you can do on a quiet day in Basel is to take tram 6 out to Bettingerstrasse stop in Riehen and then take  bus 32 (stop is  just round the corner from the tram stop) up the hill to Chrischona. If you walk round to the North side of the hill with the church on it there’s a path through the woods crossing into Germany and over into Inzlingen. It’s very rural and you might even see some highland cows on the way. I recommend coffee and cake in the moated castle before the walk back round the hill to Riehen (there is a rather infrequent bus if you’re feeling lazy). Takes 2 to 3 hours.
